Throughout the years, the court system has been established as the most commonly used model, to settle any civil disputes or family related issues.  However, times are changing and after radical reforms in the legal system in Cyprus, alternative dispute resolution (ADR), is encouraged and there has been an increasing support for it, especially due to the fact that there have been concerns that in general “cases are resolved too late, too expensively, with complex procedures and adverse costs which sometimes dominate the value of a claim”. 

Our office, has a registered Family law Mediator and a registered Civil Law Mediator, who can assist our clients in conducting a flexible process confidentially, being a neutral person which will assist the parties of the negotiation to reach an out-of-court settlement.

The advantages pursuing ADR are among others, lower cost, speed of settlement, control of process, choice of forum, flexibility of the process and confidentiality.
